One cannot easily handle the enormous pressure of playing over a 100 games. Some people take a dare at it but I personally do not like it! :-P

(P.S: Congratulations to all the Icelanders on their country's success at the Miss World 2005. :-) )

currently handling 106 games with lots more to come. I move every day at least once, usually i sit here hoping for people I am playing to move. Taking my time in chess is my largest problem, so I guess I am not helping myself there... Anyway, glad to know I can do it.

I like to play a few moves everyday so I like to have a few more games. At the moment it 15 and that is my limit. I notice that I can really only expect to get around four different moves from other players. I like to work on a game when I log on. Also I only challenge people with 3/days per move as I don't like waiting almost 7 days for a move as that could take eight months to play a game.

...and on the other hand, I prefer 7 days/move because, with fewer games, one often sees ideas that one misses if one has too many games going on at once. Sometimes I find it takes an hour or more on one position to see new approaches. Even one 3 day/move game can force me to keep playing "speed chess" to answer that one game, to the detriment of my other games. Mind you, I'm not advocating playing on and on, once a week, in dead lost positions at 7 days/move like SOME people... :-D

there will come a day when I can beat you popcorn, and you know you'll do that to me. ;-)

(it'll be the game that you hang your queen....)
